OpenAI announces leadership transition

 

 

Chief technology officer Mira Murati appointed interim CEO to lead OpenAI; Sam Altman departs the company.

Search process underway to identify permanent successor.

 

최고 기술 책임자인 Mira Murati는 OpenAI를 이끌 임시 CEO로 임명되었습니다. 영구 후임자를 찾기 위한 검색 작업이 진행 중입니다. 샘 알트먼(Sam Altman)이 회사를 떠납니다. 

 

The board of directors of OpenAI, Inc., the 501(c)(3) that acts as the overall governing body for all OpenAI activities, today announced that Sam Altman will depart as CEO and leave the board of directors. Mira Murati, the company’s chief technology officer, will serve as interim CEO, effective immediately.

 

모든 OpenAI 활동의 전반적인 관리 기관 역할을 하는 OpenAI, Inc.(501(c)(3))의 이사회는 오늘 Sam Altman이 CEO직을 떠나 이사회를 떠날 것이라고 발표했습니다. 회사의 최고 기술 책임자(CTO)인 미라 무라티(Mira Murati)가 임시 CEO로 즉각 취임할 예정입니.

 

 

A member of OpenAI’s leadership team for five years, Mira has played a critical role in OpenAI’s evolution into a global AI leader. She brings a unique skill set, understanding of the company’s values, operations, and business, and already leads the company’s research, product, and safety functions. Given her long tenure and close engagement with all aspects of the company, including her experience in AI governance and policy, the board believes she is uniquely qualified for the role and anticipates a seamless transition while it conducts a formal search for a permanent CEO.

 

5년 동안 OpenAI 리더십 팀의 일원이었던 Mira는 OpenAI가 글로벌 AI 리더로 발전하는 데 중요한 역할을 했습니다. 그녀는 독특한 기술과 회사의 가치, 운영 및 비즈니스에 대한 이해를 바탕으로 회사의 연구, 제품 및 안전 기능을 이끌고 있습니다. 그녀의 오랜 임기와 AI 거버넌스 및 정책 경험을 포함하여 회사의 모든 측면에 대한 긴밀한 참여를 고려할 때 이사회는 그녀가 해당 역할에 대한 고유한 자격을 갖추고 있다고 믿고 영구 CEO를 공식적으로 찾는 동안 원활한 전환을 기대합니다.

 

Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process by the board, which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board, hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities. The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.

 

알트먼 씨의 사임은 이사회의 심의 검토 과정에 따른 것이며, 이사회는 그가 이사회와의 의사소통에 일관되게 솔직하지 않아 이사회의 책임 수행 능력을 방해한다는 결론을 내렸습니다. 이사회는 더 이상 OpenAI를 계속 이끌 수 있는 그의 능력에 대해 확신을 갖지 못합니다.

 

 

In a statement, the board of directors said: “OpenAI was deliberately structured to advance our mission: to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all humanity. The board remains fully committed to serving this mission. We are grateful for Sam’s many contributions to the founding and growth of OpenAI. At the same time, we believe new leadership is necessary as we move forward. As the leader of the company’s research, product, and safety functions, Mira is exceptionally qualified to step into the role of interim CEO. We have the utmost confidence in her ability to lead OpenAI during this transition period.”

 

성명서에서 이사회는 “OpenAI는 인공 일반 지능이 모든 인류에게 이익이 되도록 보장한다는 우리의 사명을 발전시키기 위해 의도적으로 구성되었습니다. 이사회는 이 사명을 수행하기 위해 최선을 다하고 있습니다. OpenAI의 창립과 성장에 대한 Sam의 많은 기여에 감사드립니다. 동시에 우리는 앞으로 나아가기 위해서는 새로운 리더십이 필요하다고 믿습니다. 회사의 연구, 제품 및 안전 기능의 리더인 Mira는 임시 CEO 역할을 맡을 수 있는 특별한 자격을 갖추고 있습니다. 우리는 이 전환 기간 동안 OpenAI를 이끌 그녀의 능력에 대해 최고의 확신을 갖고 있습니다.”

 

OpenAI’s board of directors consists of OpenAI chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, independent directors Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo, technology entrepreneur Tasha McCauley, and Georgetown Center for Security and Emerging Technology’s Helen Toner.

 

OpenAI의 이사회는 OpenAI 수석 과학자 Ilya Sutskever, 사외 이사인 Quora CEO Adam D'Angelo, 기술 기업가 Tasha McCauley, Georgetown Center for Security and Emerging Technology의 Helen Toner로 구성되어 있습니다.

 

As a part of this transition, Greg Brockman will be stepping down as chairman of the board and will remain in his role at the company, reporting to the CEO.

 

이러한 전환의 일환으로 Greg Brockman은 이사회 의장직에서 물러나며 회사에서 CEO에게 보고하는 역할을 맡게 됩니다.

 

OpenAI was founded as a non-profit in 2015 with the core mission of ensuring that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity. In 2019, OpenAI restructured to ensure that the company could raise capital in pursuit of this mission, while preserving the nonprofit's mission, governance, and oversight. The majority of the board is independent, and the independent directors do not hold equity in OpenAI. While the company has experienced dramatic growth, it remains the fundamental governance responsibility of the board to advance OpenAI’s mission and preserve the principles of its Charter.

 

OpenAI는 인공 일반 지능이 모든 인류에게 혜택을 제공한다는 핵심 사명을 가지고 2015년 비영리 단체로 설립되었습니다. 2019년에 OpenAI는 비영리 단체의 사명, 거버넌스 및 감독을 유지하면서 회사가 이 사명을 추구하기 위해 자본을 조달할 수 있도록 구조 조정했습니다. 이사회의 대다수는 독립적이며, 독립 이사는 OpenAI에서 지분을 보유하지 않습니다. 회사는 극적인 성장을 경험했지만 OpenAI의 사명을 발전시키고 헌장의 원칙을 보존하는 것은 이사회의 근본적인 거버넌스 책임으로 남아 있습니다.
